1985 Sindy: Shaping-Up, 42014

1985 Sindy: Shaping-Up, 42014.

From the 1985 Pedigree Sindy Brochure.

It’s always hard to set a rule of how the Sindy items looked exactly in each year and which precise design the box had. As we know, Pedigree liked to use up materials, body parts and also packages that they still had in their storage, so there can be a lot of variations! But TLSM has tried to find the most common type of it all and this is the conclusion.

Sindy has soft head with “Sindy” on a raised plate (sometimes hidden in the hairline) on the back of her head and the numbers “033055X” above her neck. She has long rooted hair, with center part all the way down to her neck. She’s got a double plated blonde hairstyle with the end of the plates held together with rubber bands. She has double neck joint, “all-rubber arms” with bending elbows, hinged hands, fully poseable waist, click-click knees and bending ankles. Sindy can do split both sideways and back-/frontwards.

This Sindy doll (not the boxed one) is here at The Little Sindy Museum.  She was purchased as an ‘used’ Sindy Active doll. TLSM is not 100% certain the head or body haven’t been switched but, as far as we can tell, it should be the correct doll on the photos below. Click on a photo to see it enlarged!
